S4 | Ep. 4: OPPENHEIMER Hair & Makeup Revealed w/Jaime Leigh McIntosh & Luisa Abel
Today is the day of the digital release of OPPENHEIMER so here is
an episode for you about what all the heavy lifting that went to aging and transforming the brilliant actors in the film. Hair Designer Jaime Leigh McIntosh and Makeup Designer Luisa Abel walk us through the process on set under Christopher Nolan's direction while they collaborated to create convincing looks for Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., and Emily Blunt that would span across wildly different projections (IMAX and 70 MM) and Black and White as well as Color. I'm sorry for the minimal visuals- the studio sent approved images which I wanted to respect, but in order to see Jaime Leigh and Luisa's extraordinary work better, please please please see the film which is out now on digital.Jaime Leigh also hosts the podcast, Last Looks which is a must-sub for everyone in the industry- check it out if you aren't subscribed already!

S4 | Ep. 3: Hair Dept. Head, Cliona Furey talks PRISCILLA, wig city!
The new film from A24, Sophia Coppola's PRISCILLA, is an undisputed feast for the eyes. Released on this past weekend, you hopefully got yourself to the theater to see the incredible detail that was put in to the costumes, set design, hair, makeup and cinematography. As a frequent visitor to Graceland myself and a person who has been known to study every last detail of Priscilla, Elvis and Lisa Marie Presley's aesthetic, I was truly impressed with the visuals because they honored the historical detail while also being unmistakingly Sophia's vision. I loved having Hair Designer Cliona Furey back on the pod to talk about her unbelievable work (no doubt it has been in your feed this entire week!). It's deservedly getting tons of Awards Buzz, and you will love hearing about how she did it, straight from Cliona herself.
Enjoy!

S4 | Ep. 1: Headed Back To School at Abbott Elementary with Moira Frazier, Hair Deptment Head
WE ARE HEADED BACK TO SCHOOL. Yes indeed, with Emmy Nominee Moira Frazier, the Head of the Hair Department at ABBOT ELEMENTARY. Moira tells me about whipping up a wig at a moment's notice for Ayo Edibri, finding individualized hairstyles for all our favorites in the cast
including Janelle James, Quinta Brunson, Sheryl Lee Ralph and Lisa Ann Walter as well as the many many many other cast members- kids, parents and more. Moira breaks down the nitty gritty of The Strike and how the trickle down affects the entire industry, and she tells me about her products which she uses on set and you can purchase for yourself. I had the greatest time talking to this amazing woman, and I hope you enjoy our conversation and learn a thing or two that you didn't know before about wigs, the strike, and... Toledo. (just listen!)

S3 | BONUS EPISODE: The Bear Season 2 with Make-Up Dept. Head, Ignacia Soto-Aguilar
THE BEAR. It's your favorite show and these are your favorite
characters. I am breaking my hiatus to bring you this episode because
you know we all need it. Ignacia Soto-Aguilar will tell you in this
episode about THE LASH (you know the one on Jamie Lee Curtis' face
that broke the internet)! I love talking to Ignacia about her projects
because while she is a makeup artist, what you may not know is that she
thinks like a filmmaker. Listen as she tells me what it was like
shooting Episode 6 - "Fishes", that incredible Christmas dinner scene
where ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE. And Will Poulter's tatts based on his
personal story - he needed nurses everywhere and hot sauce bottles?! -
as well as the Brownies that he made himself and brought to set in this
very special bonus episode about this very special show.
